I was a cofounder of the Palliative care expert center in Nijmegen in 2005 and also worked as a projectleader for the national palliative care programme in the Netherlands on behalf of the Dutch Federation of University Hospitals. For this Federation I also lead on several other projects (medical education, national science agenda healthcare).

Before my research career, I have been active as a policy worker and project leader in several mental healthcare organisations.
